Directors’ report
Assessment of ECO-Nurture on over 120 kiwifruit orchards in New Zealand over the past three growing seasons has delivered positive outcomes for kiwifruit plant protection and productivity without leaving chemical residues. ECO Nurture has demonstrated that it is effective against bacteria which has negatively impacted kiwifruit industry in addition to supporting fruit quality, yield, and appearance of the fruit with zero residual toxicity.
During the year, over 2,400 litres of ECO Nurture concentrate have been delivered to kiwifruit orchard managers in New Zealand with a further 800 litres delivered in August.
Skin Elements has now commenced the commercial roll-out of ECO-Nurture for the 2026 New Zealand kiwifruit growing season with further deliveries to follow.
5.2.3. SuprCuvr disinfectant Phase 3 commencing
SuprCuvr is a TGA-registered hospital-grade disinfectant made from the Company’s proprietary 100% plant-based SE Formula[TM] . It combines the world’s highest level of efficacy against viral and bacterial infection with a 100% plant-based organic input certified formula to present a significant market opportunity for a chemical-free disinfectant in large-scale settings such as food manufacturing, hospitality retail businesses, public transport, and health services.
SuprCuvr is currently being used by Spotless cleaning contractors in the Melbourne city trains with a further 900 litres delivered in August 2025.

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
The Group incurred a loss for the year of $1,728,461 (2024: $2,161,283 loss) and a net cash in-flow from operating activities of $233,846 (2024: $279,377 out-flow). As at 30 June 2025, the Group had a working capital deficit of $1,944,428 (2024: $1,669,883 working capital deficit) and a net asset deficit of $1,937,061 (2024: $1,632,838 a net asset deficit).
The Group’s ability to continue as a going concern depends on securing additional debt or equity funding and/or generating profits from its operations. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Directors are confident that there will be sufficient funds for the Group to meet its obligations and liabilities and believe it is appropriate to prepare these accounts on a going concern basis for the following reasons:
==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
- The Group continues to benefit from the Australian Government’s R&D Tax Incentive, with $1,193,626 million received during the year for FY2024 expenditure and a further $635,592 accrued to 30 June 2025, with the claim lodged subsequent to balance date.
==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
- Additional liquidity has been secured through the R&D advance facility with Radium Capital of $433,256 received in relation to the FY2025 R&D Rebate to be repaid out of funds claimed above.
==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
- $500,000 in outstanding fees due to Directors and key management was settled through the issue of shares, further conserving cash resources.
==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
- Directors have confirmed they will defer repayment of balances owed until the Company is in a position to repay without affecting its ability to meet ongoing commitments.
==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
- The Company has a strong track record of raising capital when required and will secure additional working capital through equity raising as required.
==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
- Detailed cash flow forecasts prepared by the Directors demonstrate that the Group will have sufficient funds to meet its obligations and working capital requirements for at least 12 months from the date of this report.
While these conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty, the Directors believe the mitigating factors outlined above provide a strong basis to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. In particular, the Group’s consistent ability to access equity funding, combined with the expected receipt of R&D rebates, underpins their confidence in the Group’s ongoing viability.
Should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realise assets and extinguish liabilities outside the ordinary course of business, at amounts different from those stated in the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any such adjustments.

|---|---|
| The Group faces a range of risks, both business-specific and general, that may individually or collectively affect future | |
| operating and financial performance. | |
| 5.4.1. | Reputation and brand |
| Sustained business success depends on the strength of Skin Elements’ brands. Product issues, counterfeit goods, supplier | |
| failures or negative media coverage may materially damage reputation and performance. | |
| 5.4.2. | Laws, regulations, and geopolitics |
| The Group operates in multiple regulated jurisdictions. Changes in laws, tax regimes, supply chains or geopolitical conditions | |
| can materially impact production, distribution and sales. | |
| 5.4.3. | Cybersecurity and data |
| Protecting intellectual property and confidential data is critical. Increasing cybercrime and digital data storage heighten the | |
| need for robust security measures. | |
| 5.4.4. | Key partnerships |
| Sales and strategic initiatives rely on key markets, distributors and retailers. Underperformance or shifts in market dynamics | |
| may materially affect results. | |
| 5.4.5. | People and culture |
| Delivery of strategic objectives depends on attracting and retaining skilled, motivated staff and maintaining strong | |
| leadership. | |
| 5.4.6. | Safety, health, and wellbeing |

| essential to sustainable operations. | |

| Unanticipated shifts in consumer demand, competitive pressures or disruptive events (e.g. pandemics, online growth, price | |
| competition) may limit growth opportunities or disrupt inventory management. | |
| 5.4.8. | Significant business interruption |
| Natural disasters, pandemics, hazards or politically motivated events may disrupt supply chains, infrastructure and | |
| workforce, causing financial and reputational impacts. | |
| 5.4.9. | Climate and sustainability |

| Effective management of these issues is critical to the Group’s growth and commitments. | |
| 5.4.10. | Financial and treasury |
| The Group’s financial performance is sensitive to fluctuations in exchange rates, interest rates, credit conditions and capital | |
| markets. Broader economic or business events, including recalls or pandemics, may also impair liquidity, profitability and | |
| funding access. Maintaining adequate liquidity, prudent capital management and secure financing are essential to support | |
| operations and growth. | |
| 5.5. | Risk management |
| The Board adopts a proactive approach to risk management and is ultimately responsible for ensuring that risks and | |
| opportunities are identified in a timely manner, and that the Group’s objectives and activities remain aligned with them. | |

| assist in overseeing governance, risk management, compliance, and related practices. | |

12.2.2. Remuneration structure
The Group’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration of KMP is as follows:
a. Non-Executive Directors – Mr Filippo (Phil) Giglia and Mr Stuart Usher
Non-Executive Director remuneration is set by the Board, based on recommendations of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee and an assessment of each Director’s contribution.
The maximum aggregate annual remuneration payable to non-executive Directors is $500,000, as approved by shareholders under the Company’s Constitution, the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). Within this limit, fees are currently set at $60,000 p.a. for each Director. An additional $20,000 p.a. is payable to the Chairman of the Audit and Risk Committee and the Nomination and Remuneration Committee (Mr Giglia).
b. Executive Directors and other Senior Executives
The Company’s remuneration policy seeks to align executive remuneration with shareholder interests and to attract and retain appropriately qualified executives. Remuneration is designed to reflect competitive market conditions and link individual rewards to both financial and non-financial performance outcomes.
The Board, through the Nomination and Remuneration Committee , is assessing and implementing an executive reward framework to ensure remuneration is competitive, performance-based, and aligned with results delivered.
12.2.3. Performance-based remuneration – Short-term and long-term incentive structure
The Board periodically reviews the Company’s short- and long-term incentive arrangements to ensure alignment with shareholder interests.
a. Short-term incentives
No short-term incentives in the form of cash bonuses were granted during the year.
b. Long-term incentives
The Company maintains an Equity Incentive Plan under which Performance Rights, Options, or Restricted Shares may be granted to Directors, employees, or contractors. For the year ended 30 June 2025, executive remuneration comprised fixed base amounts at or below market levels, except as disclosed under Share-based Compensation – Employee Incentive Plan .
The Plan is designed to align executive and shareholder interests through performance hurdles, typically requiring achievement of share price targets above the issue price and expiring within defined timeframes. Executive Directors remain eligible to participate in both short-term and long-term incentive arrangements introduced by the Company or its subsidiaries from time to time.
The relative proportions of executive remuneration that are fixed or at risk is outlined below:
| Group KMP | Proportions of elements of remuneration | Proportions of elements of remuneration |

| Contract commencement / termination date |

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
for the year ended 30 June 2025
SECTION A. HOW THE NUMBERS ARE CALCULATED
This section provides additional information about those individual line items in the financial statements that the Directors consider most relevant in the context of the operations of the entity, including:
-
(a) accounting policies that are relevant for an understanding of the items recognised in the financial statements. These cover situations where the accounting standards either allow a choice or do not deal with a particular type of transaction.
-
(b) analysis and sub-totals.
-
(c) information about estimates and judgements made in relation to particular items.
Note 1 Statement of material accounting policies
This note provides a list of the material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements to the extent they have not already been disclosed in the other notes above. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
| 1.1 | Basis of preparation |
|---|---|
| 1.1.1 | Reporting Entity |
| Skin Elements Limited (Skin Elementsorthe Company) is a listed public company limited by shares, incorporated and | |
| domiciled in Australia. These consolidated financial statements comprise the Company and its controlled entities (the Group) | |
| and have been prepared as a for-profit entity. The Group is primarily engaged in the research and development of its | |
| proprietary SE Formula™ biotechnology. | |
| In accordance with the_Corporations Act 2001_(Cth), separate parent entity financial statements have not been presented. | |
| 1.1.2 | Basis of accounting |
| These financial statements are general purpose financial statements prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting | |
| Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB), the_Corporations Act 2001_(Cth), | |
| and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). | |
| Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) set out accounting policies that the AASB has determined result in financial statements | |
| providing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Compliance with Australian Accounting | |
| Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with IFRS as issued by the IASB. | |
| The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Directors of the Company on 30 September 2025. | |
| 1.1.3 | Going Concern |
| The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business | |
| activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. | |
| The Group incurred a loss for the year of $1,728,461 (2024: $2,161,283 loss) and a net cash in-flow from operating activities of | |
| $233,846 (2024: $279,377 out-flow). As at 30 June 2025, the Group a working capital deficit of $1,944,428 (2024: $1,669,883 | |
| working capital deficit) and a net asset deficit of $1,937,061 (2024: $1,632,838 a net asset deficit). | |
| The Group’s ability to continue as a going concern depends on securing additional debt or equity funding and/or generating | |
| profits from its operations. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on | |
| the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. | |
| The Directors are confident that there will be sufficient funds for the Group to meet its obligations and liabilities and believe it | |
| is appropriate to prepare these accounts on a going concern basis for the following reasons: | |
| The Group continues to benefit from the Australian Government’s R&D Tax Incentive, with $1,193,626 million received | |
| during the year for FY2024 expenditure and a further $635,592 accrued to 30 June 2025, with the claim lodged subsequent | |
| to balance date. | |
| Additional liquidity has been secured through the R&D advance facility with Radium Capital of $433,256 received in relation | |
| to the FY2025 R&D Rebate to be repaid out of funds claimed above. | |
| $500,000 in outstanding fees due to Directors and key management was settled through the issue of shares, further | |
| conserving cash resources. | |
| Directors have confirmed they will defer repayment of balances owed until the Company is in a position to repay without | |
| affecting its ability to meet ongoing commitments. | |
| The Company has a strong track record of raising capital when required and will secure additional working capital through | |
| equity raising as required. | |
| Detailed cash flow forecasts prepared by the Directors demonstrate that the Group will have sufficient funds to meet its | |
| obligations and workingcapital requirements for at least 12 months from the date of this report. |

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
for the year ended 30 June 2025
| Note | 1 Statement of material accounting policies(cont.) |
||
|---|---|---|---|
| While these conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty, the | Directors believe the mitigating factors outlined | ||
| above provide a strong basis to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. In particular, the Group’s consistent | |||
| ability to access equity funding, combined with the expected receipt of R&D rebates, underpins their confidence in the Group’s | |||
| ongoing viability. | |||
| Should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realise assets and extinguish liabilities outside | |||
| the ordinary course of business, at amounts different from those stated in the financial statements. The financial statements do | |||
| not include any such adjustments. | |||
| 1.1.4 | Comparative figures | ||
| Where required by AASBs, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current year. | |||
| Where the Group retrospectively applies an accounting policy, makes a retrospective restatement, or reclassifies items, an | |||
| additional statement of financial position is presented at the beginning of the preceding period, in addition to the minimum | |||
| comparative information. | |||
| 1.1.5 | New and amended AASBs adopted by the group | ||
| A number of amended standards became applicable for the current reporting period. The Group did not have to change its | |||
| accounting policies or make retrospective adjustments as a result of adopting | these amended standards. | ||
| 1.2 | Goods and Services Tax(GST) | ||
| Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of GST, except where GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation | |||
| authority, in which case it is recognised as part of the asset cost or expense. | Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of | ||
| GST. Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority. | |||
| The net GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is presented as a current asset or liability. Cash flows are presented gross | |||
| of GST, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows. | |||
| 1.3 | Use of estimates and judgments | ||
| The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates, and assumptions that | |||
| affect the application of accounting policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. These are based | |||
| on historical experience and other factors considered reasonable in the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these | |||
| estimates. | |||
| Estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions are recognised in the period of revision and future | |||
| periods affected. Significant judgements in applying AASBs, and estimates with a significant risk of material adjustment in the | |||
| next year, are discussed in note 1.3.1. | |||
| 1.3.1 | Critical accounting estimates and judgments | ||
| Management, in consultation with the Board, considers the development, | selection and disclosure of the Group’s critical | ||
| accounting policies and estimates. Estimates and judgements that involve | a significant risk of material adjustment to the | ||
| carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are outlined below: | |||
| a. Key estimate – Taxation..................................................................Refer note 4_Income Tax_. | |||
| b. _Key estimate – Impairment of intangibles ..................................._Refer note 6.2 | Intangible assets. | ||
| c. Key estimate – Share-based payments ........................................_Refer note 18_Share-based payments. | |||
| 1.4 | Fair value | ||
| 1.4.1 | Fair value of assets and liabilities | ||
| The Group measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value, either on a recurring or non-recurring basis, in accordance with | |||
| the requirements of the applicable AASBs. | |||
| Fair value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction | |||
| between market participants at the measurement date. | |||
| As fair value is a market-based measurement, observable market prices are used whenever available. Adjustments may be made | |||
| to reflect the specific characteristics of the asset or liability. For items not traded in an active market, fair values are determined | |||
| using valuation techniques that maximise the use of observable inputs. | |||
| Market information is taken from the principal market for the asset or liability, or, if there is no principal market, the most | |||
| advantageous market available at the reporting date. For non-financial assets, fair value measurement also reflects a market | |||
| participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use, or by selling it to another | |||
| participant who would use it that way. | |||
| The fair value of liabilities and the Group’s own equity instruments (excluding those related to share-based payment | |||
| arrangements) is determined, where possible, by reference to observable market information. Where this is not available, other | |||
| valuation techniques are applied and, where significant, are disclosed in the relevant notes to the financial statements. |

| An asset or liability is categorised in its entirety within the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. | |||
| Transfers between levels occur when there is a change in the observability of inputs or in market activity. The Group recognises | |||
| such transfers at the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer. | |||
| 1.5 | New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted | ||
| Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 30 June 2025 reporting | |||
| periods and have not been early adopted by the Group. These standards are not expected to have a material impact on the | |||

2.3 Accounting policies
2.3.1 Revenue from contracts with customers
a. Recognition
The Group generates revenue from the sale and delivery of goods through online sales, direct sales by employees, and wholesalers or business customers who purchase products for resale. Online sales are made via the Skin Elements website, which establishes pricing and delivery terms. Orders from wholesalers and business customers are tailored to client requirements; however, in all cases, performance obligations are satisfied once the goods have been delivered to the customer. At 30 June 2025, the Group had no material customer contracts outstanding.
b. Revenue from selling goods
Revenue from the sale of suncare, skincare, disinfectant, and horticultural bio-stimulant products is recognised when customers obtain control of the goods, which generally occurs upon delivery. No additional products or services are bundled with these contracts. Invoices are typically payable within 30 days, with no significant financing component as payment terms are consistent with industry practice.
2.3.2 Government grants
Government grants are recognised at fair value when there is reasonable assurance that they will be received and the Group will comply with the attached conditions:
-
a. Research and development tax incentive (R&D incentive) is recognised at fair value when reasonable assurance of receipt exists and eligibility requirements are met. The R&D incentive received is presented in profit or loss as other income.
-
The Group did not benefit directly from any other forms of government assistance.
2.3.3 Interest income
Interest revenue is recognised in accordance with note 2.3.3a Finance expenses below .
a. Finance expenses
Finance expenses include interest on borrowings recognised using the effective interest method, unwinding of discounts on provisions, changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, and impairment losses on financial assets. Borrowing costs comprise interest on overdrafts, short- and long-term borrowings, and lease liabilities. Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets until substantially ready for use or sale. All other borrowing costs are expensed as incurred

3.4.1 Accounting policy - Employee benefits
-
a. Short-term benefits
Liabilities for wages, salaries and annual leave expected to be settled within 12 months are measured at the undiscounted amounts the Group expects to pay, including related on-costs such as payroll tax and workers compensation insurance. Non-accumulating non-monetary benefits (for example, medical care, housing, cars, subsidised goods and services) are expensed at the net marginal cost to the Group as they are provided.
b. Other long-term benefits Liabilities for long-term employee benefits, such as long service leave, are measured at the present value of the expected future benefit earned to date, less the fair value of any plan assets. The obligation is discounted using market yields on government bonds with maturities approximating the terms of the liability. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
c. Retirement benefit obligations: Defined contribution superannuation funds Obligations for contributions to defined contribution superannuation funds are recognised as an expense in profit or loss when incurred. The Group has no further payment obligations once contributions are made.
d. Equity-settled compensation Share-based payments to employees and contractors are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted at the grant date. The cost is recognised over the vesting period, with a corresponding increase in equity. Amounts are adjusted to reflect the actual number of instruments that vest, except where non-vesting is due to market conditions. , except where non-vesting is due to market conditions. except where non-vesting is due to market conditions. pt where non-vesting is due to market conditions. t where non-vesting is due to market conditions. g is due to market conditions. is due to market conditions.

4.6.1 Potential deferred tax assets attributable to tax losses have not been recognised at 30 June 2025, as the Directors do not consider their realisation to be probable at this time. These benefits will only be available if:
- i. the Group generates sufficient future taxable income;
ii. the Group continues to satisfy conditions for deductibility; and
iii. tax legislation does not adversely change.
Tax-related balances in the financial statements are based on directors’ best estimates, reflecting current legislation, the Group’s financial performance and position, and pending assessments by taxation authorities. No adjustment has been made for potential future legislative changes.
The parent company has accumulated tax losses of $10,380,440 (2024: $8,015,508) which may be available for offset against future taxable profits of the parent company in which the losses arose. The recoupment of these losses is subject to assessment by the Australian Taxation Office.
4.7 Accounting policy
The income tax expense or benefit for the year comprises current tax and movements in deferred tax assets ( DTAs ) and deferred tax liabilities ( DTLs ) arising from temporary differences and unused tax losses.
4.7.1 Current tax
The current income tax charge is based on taxable income for the period, calculated using tax rates and laws enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Current tax assets and liabilities for current and prior periods are measured at the amounts expected to be recovered from, or paid to, the taxation authorities. Management evaluates positions taken in tax returns where regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate 4.7.2 Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases at the reporting date.

4.7 Accounting policy (cont.)
DTLs are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except where: they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill, or from an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit; or the temporary difference relates to investments in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, and the timing of reversal can be controlled and it is probable that the difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future DTAs are recognised for deductible temporary differences, unused tax credits and unused tax losses to the extent it is probable that future taxable profit will be available. DTAs are not recognised where: they arise from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit; or they relate to investments in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, unless it is probable the difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available. The carrying amount of DTAs is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced where recovery is no longer probable. Unrecognised DTAs are reassessed and recognised when future taxable profit is considered probable. DTAs and DTLs are measured at the tax rates expected to apply when the asset is realised or the liability settled, using tax rates and laws enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
4.7.3 Other matters DTAs and DTLs are offset when a legally enforceable right exists to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities, and they relate to the same taxable entity and taxation authority. Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or loss.
The Group accounts for refundable tax offsets, including the Australian Government’s Research and Development (R&D) tax incentive, under AASB 112. Rebates are received through the parent company’s income tax return. Further information on unrecognised DTAs attributable to tax losses is provided in note 4.6.1

5.2.4 Accounting policy
Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any allowance for expected credit losses ( ECLs ). Receivables are generally prepaid or COD, or up to 30 days.
The Group applies the simplified approach under AASB 9, recognising lifetime ECLs on trade receivables. Impairment is assessed on an ongoing basis. Receivables considered uncollectible are written off against the allowance account, with impairment losses recognised in profit or loss in other expenses. Any recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to other expenses.

5.5.3 Accounting policy
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in profit or loss over the term of the borrowing.
Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that drawdown is probable. Where drawdown is not probable, fees are capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over the facility period.
Borrowings are classified as non-current when the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting date; otherwise, they are classified as current.

Raw materials, stores, work in progress and finished goods are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
Cost comprises direct materials, direct labour and a proportion of variable and fixed production overheads, allocated on the basis of normal operating capacity. Purchased inventory costs are recorded net of rebates and discounts. Costs are assigned to inventory using the weighted average cost method.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale.
Write-downs to net realisable value are recognised as an expense in the period in which they occur.

6.2 Intangible assets
6.2.1 Key estimates
a. Impairment of intangible assets
The Group assesses intangible assets for impairment at each reporting date in accordance with AASB 136. This involves evaluating conditions specific to the asset that may indicate a change in recoverable amount.
An impairment charge of $7,489,990 was recognised in a prior period against the Group’s intellectual property assets, reducing their carrying amount to nil. The impairment was based on a value-in-use discounted cash flow model, reflecting limited sales history and insufficient contracted sales to support reliable cash flow forecasts. At the current reporting date, these conditions persist and the carrying value remains at nil.
The key estimate relates to the potential reversal of impairment. Under AASB 136, reversals are permitted when there is an indication that the recoverable amount of an asset has increased since the last impairment was recognised. A reversal would be recognised in profit or loss to the extent that the revised carrying amount does not exceed the amount that would have been determined (net of amortisation) had no impairment been recognised previously.
Accordingly, if commercialisation of the intellectual property proves successful and contracted sales provide reliable evidence of positive future cash inflows, some or all of the prior impairment may be reversed.

6.2 Intangible assets (cont.)
b. Amortisation rates
The Group has assessed the effective life of its SE Formula™ intangible asset (comprising Soléo Organics, McArthur Skincare , Elizabeth Jane Natural Cosmetics , and Invisi® Shield Hand Sanitiser formulas and technologies). This assessment considers industry practice, expected product life cycles, and internal knowledge of the underlying markets. The amortisation rate represents management’s estimate of the period over which the assets are expected to generate economic benefits, but actual results may differ. The effective life will continue to be reviewed at each reporting date.
6.2.2 Accounting policies
a. Intangible assets acquired separately
Separately acquired intangible assets are recorded at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment. Amortisation is charged on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives. Useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed annually, with changes accounted for prospectively.
- i. Formula and technology
Skin Elements formula and technology (hereafter SE Formula™ ), comprises the following, which utilise the same propriety formula in their ingredients: Soléo Organics formula and technology; PapayaActivs Skincare formula and technology; Elizabeth Jane Natural Cosmetics formula and technology; and Invisi® Shield SuprCuvr Disinfectant. Formula and technology are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment. Where acquired in a business combination, they are recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. These assets are considered to have finite useful lives.
ii. Software
Costs incurred in maintaining software are expensed as incurred. Costs directly attributable to the development or improvement of identifiable and unique software controlled by the Group are capitalised when the recognition criteria for internally generated intangibles are met.
- b. Capitalising development costs of formula and technology and software
Research expenditure is expensed as incurred. Development expenditure on formula, technology, and software is capitalised only when all of the following can be demonstrated:
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
technical feasibility of completing the asset for use or sale;
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
intention and ability to complete and use or sell the asset;
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
evidence that the asset will generate probable future economic benefits;
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
availability of resources to complete the development and use or sell the asset; and ability to reliably measure the attributable expenditure.
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
the ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.
Capitalised development costs are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment, consistent with separately acquired intangible assets. Expenditure that does not meet the recognition criteria is expensed as incurred.
c. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination Intangible assets acquired in a business combination, other than goodwill, are recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent measurement is at cost less amortisation and impairment for finite life assets, or at cost less impairment for indefinite life assets. Derecognition gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss as the difference between disposal proceeds and carrying amount. Useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed annually, with changes accounted for prospectively.
d. Subsequent measurement
Amortisation commences when development is sufficiently advanced for products to be produced in commercial quantities. The SE Formula™ has been assessed as meeting this test and is amortised on a straight-line basis over an estimated useful life of 25 years. The useful life of each intangible asset is reviewed regularly.

Note 6 Non-financial assets and financial liabilities (cont.)
| 6.3 | Other material accounting policies related to non-financial assets and liabilities |
|---|---|
| 6.3.1 | Impairment of non-financial assets |
| The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets, other than deferred tax assets (see note 4.7), are reviewed at each | |
| reporting date to assess whether indicators of impairment exist. If such indicators are identified, the asset’s recoverable amount | |
| is estimated. Certain assets are subject to annual impairment testing irrespective of indicators. | |
| The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value-in-use. Recoverable amounts are determined | |
| for individual assets, unless the asset does not generate largely independent cash inflows, in which case the assessment is made | |
| at the level of the cash-generating unit (CGU). An impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of an asset or CGU | |
| exceeds its recoverable amount. | |
| Value-in-use is determined by discounting estimated future cash flows using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market | |
| assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss in | |
| the expense category consistent with the function of the impaired asset, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in | |
| which case the impairment is treated as a revaluation decrease. | |
| At each reporting date, the Group also considers whether previously recognised impairment losses should be reversed. A | |
| reversal is recognised if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount since the last | |
| impairment. The carrying amount of an asset is increased to its recoverable amount, subject to not exceeding the carrying | |
| amount that would have been determined (net of depreciation) had no impairment been recognised. Reversals are recognised | |
| in profit or loss, except where the asset is measured at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation | |
| increase. Future depreciation charges are adjusted prospectively to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount over its | |
| remaining useful life. | |
| 6.3.2 | Leases |
| The Group recognises a lease liability and a corresponding right-of-use asset at the commencement date of a lease, being the | |
| date that the leased asset is available for use by the Group. | |
| The Group has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for: | |
| short-term leases (lease terms of 12 months or less without a purchase option); and | |
| leases of low-value assets. | |
| a. Right of Use Asset | |
| Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, comprising | |
| the initial measurement of the lease liability; | |
| lease payments made at or before commencement less lease incentives received; | |
| initial direct costs; and | |
| estimated costs to dismantle, remove or restore the leased asset costs. | |
| Subsequent to initial recognition, right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease | |
| term and the asset’s useful life, and adjusted for impairment or for remeasurement of the related lease liability | |
| b. Lease liabilities | |
| Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of lease payments over the lease term, discounted using the | |
| interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that cannot be readily determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease | |
| payments include: | |
| fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less lease incentives receivable; | |
| variable lease payments based on an index or rate; | |
| amounts expected to be payable under residual value guarantees; | |
| the exercise price of purchase options reasonably certain to be exercised; and | |
| penalties for termination if the lease term reflects exercising such an option. | |
| Lease liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, increased for interest | |
| expense and reduced by lease payments made. Liabilities are remeasured when future lease payments change due to an | |
| index or rate, residual value guarantees, or changes in the assessment of purchase, extension or termination options. | |
| Corresponding adjustments are made to the right-of-use asset, or recognised in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the | |
| right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero. | |
| Variable lease payments that are not based on an index or rate are expensed in the period in which the event or condition | |
| that triggers thepayment occurs. |

SECTION B. RISK
This section of the notes discusses the Group’s exposure to various risks and shows how these could affect the Group’s financial position and performance.
Note 8 Financial risk management
This note provides information on the nature and extent of risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments, and its objectives, policies and processes for managing risk and capital. The Group’s financial instruments comprise deposits with banks, short-term investments, receivables, payables, borrowings (including convertible instruments) and leases. The Group does not trade or speculate in financial instruments or derivatives. A summary of financial assets and liabilities, measured in accordance with AASB 9, is presented below.:

8.1 Financial risk management policies
The Board oversees the Group’s risk management framework, which is designed to assist in meeting financial targets while minimising adverse effects on performance. Risk management policies are approved and reviewed regularly and address credit risk, liquidity requirements, and market risk. Senior executives monitor financial risk exposures in light of current economic conditions and forecasts.
8.2 Specific financial risk exposures and management
The Group is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk through its financial instruments.
The Board has overall responsibility for establishing and monitoring the risk management framework. Given the Group’s size and complexity, a formalised risk management system has not been adopted. Instead, the Board approves all expenditure, remains closely involved with operations, and addresses risk issues directly at Board meetings. Operational and compliance risk management processes are also in place and have been assessed as effective.
8.2.1 Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss if a counterparty fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Group’s exposure arises primarily from cash at bank, short-term deposits and receivables.
Credit risk is managed by:
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
dealing only with creditworthy counterparties;
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
monitoring the financial stability of clients and counterparties;
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
applying credit terms generally ranging from prepaid/cash on delivery up to 60 days (longer terms apply under specific contracts); and
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
establishing an allowance for expected credit losses on receivables.
- a. Credit risk exposures
The Group’s maximum credit risk exposure is limited to the carrying amount of financial assets (net of provisions) as disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk to individual customers, industry sectors or regions. Surplus funds are invested only with reputable Australian financial institutions in accordance with Board policy.
- b. Impairment losses
Impairment losses are recognised against receivables when recovery is doubtful. Amounts considered irrecoverable are written off directly. Trade and other receivables that are neither past due nor impaired are considered to be of high credit quality. The ageing of the Group's trade and other receivables at reporting date was as follows:

8.2.2 Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will be unable to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group’s objective is to maintain sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or reputational damage.
Responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board, which has established a framework to manage the Group’s short, medium, and long-term funding requirements. The Group manages liquidity risk by:
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
preparing forward looking cash flow analysis in relation to its operating, investing, and financing activities;
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
maintaining a reputable credit profile;
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
managing credit risk related to financial assets;
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
only investing surplus cash with major financial institutions; and
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
comparing the maturity profile of financial liabilities with the realisation profile of financial assets.
The Group typically ensures sufficient cash to meet operational expenses and service financial obligations for at least 60 days. This excludes the potential impact of extreme and unpredictable events such as natural disasters.
The Group’s financial liabilities comprise trade and other payables, which are non-interest bearing and generally payable within 60 days of the reporting date.

Note 8 Financial risk management (cont.)
8.2.3 Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, including interest rates, foreign exchange rates and equity prices, will affect the Group’s income or the value of its financial instruments. The Group’s objective is to manage exposures within acceptable parameters while optimising return.
The Group has minimal exposure to foreign exchange or commodity price risk and does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge market risks. There has been no material change in the Group’s market risk exposures or the way risks are managed since the prior year. The Group is not exposed to material foreign exchange risk or price risk
The Group is exposed to interest rate risk through borrowings at both fixed and floating rates. The risk is managed by maintaining an appropriate mix between fixed and floating rate debt. Details of the Group’s exposure to interest rate risk are set out in the liquidity risk disclosures.
8.2.4 Sensitivity Analyses
The Group is not subject to material market risk sensitivities.
8.2.5 Net Fair Values
a. Fair value estimation
The fair values of financial assets and liabilities are presented in the table in note 8 and compared with their carrying amounts in the statement of financial position. Fair value represents the amount for which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction.
The Directors consider that the carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair values, as trade receivables and payables are short-term in nature and measured net of impairment provisions.
Financial instruments whose carrying value is equivalent to fair value due to their nature include:
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
Cash and cash equivalents;
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
Trade and other receivables;
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
Trade and other payables; and
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
Derivative liabilities (recognised at fair value).
The methods and assumptions applied in determining fair values are set out in the accounting policies relevant to each asset or liability.
Note 9 Capital Management
9.1 Capital
The Group manages its capital to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, while maintaining an optimal debt– equity structure that reduces the cost of capital and maximises returns to shareholders and benefits to other stakeholders.
The capital structure comprises debt, cash and cash equivalents, and equity attributable to equity holders of the parent (issued capital, reserves and accumulated losses). None of the Group’s entities are subject to externally imposed capital requirements.
Operating cash flows are used to maintain and expand operations, meet routine expenditures such as tax, dividends and administration, and manage the Group’s gearing position. Gearing levels are reviewed regularly by the Board in line with target ratios, cost of capital, and the risks associated with each class of capital.

-
(c) interests in joint operations.

|
| 11.1 Basis of consolidation | |
| The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of the Company and all subsidiaries | |
| controlled by the Group. Control exists when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with | |
| an entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. | |
| Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is obtained until the date on which control ceases. The results of | |
| subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other | |
| comprehensive income from, or up to, the effective date of acquisition or disposal. | |
| 11.2 Subsidiaries | |
| Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. Their financial statements are included in the consolidated financial | |
| statements from the date control commences until the date it ceases and, where necessary, are adjusted to align with Group | |
| accounting policies. | |
| Non-controlling interests are recognised either at fair value or at the proportionate share of net assets on initial recognition, | |
| and are subsequently attributed their share of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. They are presented separately | |
| in equity and in the statement of comprehensive income. Losses are allocated to non-controlling interests even if this results in | |
| a deficit balance. | |
| Options granted by the Company over its equity instruments to employees of subsidiaries are treated as a capital contribution. | |
| The fair value of employee services received is recognised as an increase in investment in the subsidiary, with a corresponding | |
| credit to equity. | |
| A list of controlled entities is disclosed in 10_Interest in subsidiaries_of the financial statements. | |
| 11.3 Loss of control | |
| On loss of control, the Group derecognises the subsidiary’s assets, liabilities, non-controlling interests and related equity | |
| components. Any resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. Any retained interest is measured at fair value on the date | |
| control is lost and subsequently accounted for in accordance with the level of influence retained. | |
| 11.4 Transactions eliminated on consolidation | |
| All intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised profits or losses arising from intra-group transactions, are | |
| eliminated inpreparingthe consolidated financial statements. |

Diluted EPS is calculated as net profit attributable to members of the parent, adjusted for the after-tax effect of dividends, interest and other income or expense changes arising from dilutive potential ordinary shares, divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element

a. The weighted average remaining contractual life of options outstanding at year end was 1.75 years (2024: 1.25 years).
- b. The fair value of the options granted to employees is deemed to represent the value of the employee services received over the vesting period.
18.5 Fair value of options granted in prior period, remaining in effect
The fair value of the options granted to employees is deemed to represent the value of the employee services received over the vesting period.
18.6 Accounting policy
The Group may provide benefits to employees (including Directors) and consultants in the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby services are exchanged for shares or rights over shares.
18.6.1 Equity-settled transactions
The cost of equity-settled awards is measured at fair value on the grant date using an option pricing model (e.g. Binomial or Black-Scholes) that considers the exercise price, option term, share price at grant date, expected volatility, dividend yield, riskfree interest rate and non-vesting conditions. Other vesting conditions are not included in the fair value measurement.
The fair value is expensed over the vesting period with a corresponding increase in equity, based on the best estimate of the number of awards expected to vest. The cumulative expense is reassessed at each reporting date and adjusted for changes in expectations, less amounts already recognised.
18.6.2 Cash-settled transactions
For cash-settled awards, a liability is recognised and remeasured at each reporting date until settlement, using an option pricing model and the award terms. During the vesting period, the liability is measured at fair value multiplied by the expired portion of the vesting period; thereafter it equals the full fair value of the liability. All changes are recognised in profit or loss, and the ultimate cost is the cash paid to settle the liability.
18.6.3 Other provisions
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
Market conditions are included in fair value measurement; therefore, awards subject to market conditions are considered to vest if all other conditions are satisfied.
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
Modifications are accounted for at a minimum as if unmodified, with additional expense recognised for any increase in fair value.
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
Cancellations are treated as accelerated vesting on the date of cancellation, with immediate recognition of any remaining expense. Replacement awards are treated as modifications.
18.7 Key estimate
The cost of equity-settled awards is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date. The fair value of options granted is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires the use of assumptions and estimates as inputs.

| The Company has not formed a tax consolidated group with | its wholly-owned Australian subsidiary | ||||
| Basis of preparation |
This Consolidated Entity Disclosure Statement ( CEDS ) has been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth), reflecting the amendments to section 295(3A)(vi) and (vii) which clarify the definition of foreign resident as being an entity that is treated as a resident of a foreign country under the tax laws of that foreign country. These amendments apply for financial years beginning on or after 1 July 2024. The CEDS includes certain information for each entity that was part of the consolidated entity at the end of the financial year in accordance with AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements .
Determination of Tax Residency
Section 295 (3A) of the Corporation Acts 2001 defines tax residency as having the meaning in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997. The determination of tax residency involves judgement as there are currently several different interpretations that could be adopted, and which could give rise to a different conclusion on residency. It should be noted that the definitions of ‘Australian resident’ and ‘foreign resident’ in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are mutually exclusive. This means that if an entity is an ‘Australian resident’ it cannot be a ‘foreign resident’ for the purposes of disclosure in the CEDS.
In determining tax residency, the consolidated entity has applied the following interpretation:
Australian tax residency
The consolidated entity has applied current legislation and judicial precedent, including having regard to the Tax Commissioner's public guidance in Tax Ruling TR 2018/5.
